Benefits of a Native Hedgerow & Plant Sale

Hedgerows—strips of mixed plants, shrubs and trees—are a wonderful under-utilized and under-appreciated habitat. They have been called linear nature preserves in the sense that they can be highly diverse (combining meadow and forest plants), they support a wide array of wildlife, and they provide ecosystem functions that sustain the health of our air, land, and water. Join us as we welcome Alicia Bosela, owner of Ironweed Native Plant Nursery, and learn the ecological benefits of a native hedgerow, and how to use them in residential areas. The presentation will last around 30 minutes. After the program Alicia will have a variety of native plants for sale.
